College football week 3 odds are usually the most accurate after a couple weeks of early season nerves. The teams have settled down.

Over/Under Picks College Football Week 3

Analysis: So far, Alabama has averaged 54 points per game. That ranks the Crimson Tide tenth in college football in points scored per game. Bama averages 559 yards per. Alabama’s so balanced, they average 309 passing yards and 250 rushing yards, it’s a question if any defense can stop the Tide from scoring.

Ole Miss’ defense won’t. The Rebels allow 34 points per. Although Ole Miss shouldn’t score more than 17 against Alabama’s defense, that’s enough for this game to go over. Alabama is good for at least 50-points, but I don’t think Ole Miss will make up the rest.

Analysis: Arizona State’s defense has been close to impenetrable this season. The Sun Devils allow 300 total yards. Those 300 total yards translates to only 10 points per game. ASU runs a defensive formation with what they call the Tillman safety.

Named after former ASU great Pat Tillman, the Tillman safety is a roaming safety-linebacker hybrid that reads quarterbacks. So far, the Tillman safety has been great for ASU.

Analysis: UCLA only averages 19 points per game. The Bruins do allow close to 38 points per on average, though.

Fresno State averages 46.5 points while the Bulldogs allow only 17 points per. It’s important to put Fresno State’s per game point totals in perspective. The Bulldogs scored 79 against Idaho. Fresno State doesn’t have a great offense.

In Week 1, it played great against the overmatched Idaho Vandals. This game should go under the total.
